Basically this. I can't bring myself to support this company even if the incentives are great. #killingesports

If you think about it what your getting is half off pizza from them. That means that they have to be selling these pizzas at a loss for this deal to work.

So by supporting esports and buying pizzas from them this week you are both hurting pappa johns and supporting esports.


I am actually quite disappointed by TL. This company promotes willingly the idea that homosexuals should have less right than others. This is just disgusting.

Pecunia non olet.



When has papa johns spoken out against gay marriage?



FUCK ME I WAS THINKING ABOUT CHICK-FILL-A

Is it worth mentioning that the CEO did this while living in a castle? Like, an actual castle?

Haha, yeah. I remember seeing a picture of the guys mansion on reddit, and he owns like 20 cars or some shit. This is a guy who wanted to deny all Papa John workers basic healthcare...what a great guy.

I mean, I think it's great that more companies are getting involved in esports but this is a company I can't and won't support....their pizza is terrible on top of all that.

I am but a young boy and know little of the ways of advertising, but isn't EG/TL/ROOT all pushing people to buy Pizza just going to artificially inflate Papa John's numbers from this? Won't it look bad when things (I assume) slow down a lot afterwards?

Not wanting to be forced to supply it and wanting to deny them it are two completely different things. I'm sure he would have no problems with people buying private healthcare...

It probably won't be at a loss even with 50% off. It really dose not cost alot to make a pizza with how bulk buy and processing works.

You can't honestly believe that they have such an insanely massive profit margin on their product to still be making a profit
after taking 50% off the unit price?


Their large cheese pizza is $12. I can buy a fat bag of cheese, a 5lb bag of flour, yeast, and tomato sauce for about 12 bucks at the grocery store and I can probably make 3 large pizzas with that kind of material. Papa John's is definitely buying in bulk, which makes it even cheaper to make their pizzas, I would venture to say it'd cost them like $3 bucks to make a pizza which means they're still turning a 100% profit even with the 50% off deal.

Its team liquids own site it can do what it wants with its site.

And we can complain about it, what do you think teamliquid would be teamliquid without it's community? I'm not really a fan of this.. can't get 50% off pizza and that counter up in the corner looks atrocious :p
